Prepared to Handle a Range of Situations
The term "white collar crimes" is used for charges such as embezzlement and fraud that are often, but not exclusively, brought against employees accused of stealing from their employers. Among the situations that can lead to white collar crime charges are:
- Stealing money or property from an employer or client
- Writing bad checks
- Stealing credit cards or using them without authorization
The charge of fraud involves stealing money or property by using false pretenses, while embezzlement involves abusing a position of trust to commit theft.
If you have been charged with a white collar crime, get a skilled criminal defense lawyer working on your behalf. Contact us to discuss the full range of options for defending yourself, given the specific circumstances of your case.
Defending Your Future Employment Prospects
Conviction for a white collar crime can have serious consequences for your employment. Employers can refuse to hire someone whose criminal record is relevant to the details of the job, which is very often the case with embezzlement and fraud.
In addition, many employees in Northern Virginia depend on government security clearance to do their jobs, and this clearance may be withdrawn if you are convicted of a white collar crime.
